Question 1

Is Inverness Airport railway station inside the terminal?

Accepted Answer

No. The station opened to passenger services on 3 February 2023, but it is separate from the terminal. Follow the signed path around the airfield perimeter; it is well lit but uncovered, so allow for Highland weather as well as the walk.

Question 2

Which Scottish islands can I reach with Loganair from Inverness?

Accepted Answer

The current lists that agree between HIAL and Loganair are Kirkwall for Orkney, Stornoway, and Sumburgh for Shetland. A separate HIAL island page also names Benbecula, but it is absent from both HIAL’s scheduled-service table and Loganair’s current Inverness page, so this guide does not present it as a confirmed current route.

Question 3

How much liquid can I take through security at Inverness Airport?

Accepted Answer

Containers are limited to 100ml and must sit in a clear plastic bag that you remove from cabin baggage for screening. Electronic devices may also need to come out. GOV.UK notes that UK airports now differ, so follow Inverness Airport’s own current rule here and check the rule again for your return airport.

Question 4

Which car park should I use at Inverness Airport?

Accepted Answer

Short Stay is a short walk from the passenger building; Premium is immediately in front and includes assistance points; Long Stay lies beyond the shorter-stay zones. HIAL’s web page calls the Long Stay walk about 10 minutes while its parking FAQ says 15, so plan on 10–15 minutes rather than relying on the shorter figure.

Question 5

What help is available for disabled or hidden-disability travellers?

Accepted Answer

Pre-book assistance at least 48 hours before departure and it can start in the car park, continue through the terminal and take you to the aircraft. The Changing Places room opposite check-in includes a ceiling hoist, adult changing bench and adjustable-height sink. Inverness also uses the Sunflower lanyard scheme and can arrange a familiarisation visit before travel.
